Transfomers: Age of Godzillas

Rating: 7/10 (31 March 2020)

This movie is good, and that's about it. Didn't really bring anything new on the table, didn't really dive into emotion or morals here and there, but it was still a spectacle.
Yes, we've seen this before. It's an apocalyptic (kind of) world that's being taken over by a different species and human beings try their best to survive and fight whatever is in their way to end this problem. Besides the science behind the Jaegers, regarding the two pilot locking neural bridge gizmo, or the Kaijus; Robots fighting monsters, point is, it's cliched and we get it. Although the film is simple in nature, it's the action and the CGI that actually carry this film to victory. The sequences of the Jaegers fighting the Kaijus just look magnificent and thrilling to watch, that it makes one forget about the certain "essentials" needed in a good film. It's just one fun roller-coaster ride that takes you to the edge of your seat.
Idris Elba, like always, was great in this film. I can feel the assertiveness and emotion in his character. Unfortunately, I think Charlie Hunnam could have done a better job with his speech delivery and emotion, but that's barely a problem. All the other actors were exceptional, and they did what was asked of them.
Like I said, it was a good, entertaining, and enjoyable film to watch. And for what was expected of it, and for what it was, the movie did its best under the guidance of Guillermo del Toro.
